throwing this here because the topic is getting louder and my confidence is not getting better. Roastery teams need simpler exception rules before every case feels special forum talk makes it sound...
Some coffees look fine in first sample roast, but later production roast shows more unevenness and strange cups. This makes me think some defect issues still pass too easily at early stage. Are...
